Pokedex descriptions
| Gold LeafGreen HeartGold |
It has sharp, hard tusks and a rugged hide. Its TACKLE is strong enough to knock down a house. |
|---|---|
| Silver SoulSilver |
The longer and bigger its tusks, the higher its rank in its herd. The tusks take long to grow. |
| Crystal | Because this POKéMON's skin is so tough, a normal attack won't even leave a scratch on it. |
| Ruby | DONPHAN's favorite attack is curling its body into a ball, then charging at its foe while rolling at high speed. Once it starts rolling, this POKéMON can't stop very easily. |
| Sapphire | If DONPHAN were to tackle with its hard body, even a house could be destroyed. Using its massive strength, the POKéMON helps clear rock and mud slides that block mountain trails. |
| Emerald | A DONPHAN is so strong it can easily haul a dump truck. Its hide has toughened to a rock-hard state. An ordinary sort of attack won't even leave a scratch. |
| FireRed | The longer and bigger its tusks, the higher its rank in its herd. The tusks take a long time to grow. |
| Diamond Pearl Platinum |
It attacks by curling up, then rolling into its foe. It can blow apart a house in one hit. |
